[The endoscopic treatment of extensive urethral strictures and obliteration of the urethra and bladder neck].
Extensive urethral strictures, obliteration of the urethra and bladder cervix are thought to be the most complicated urological diseases. They occur more frequently in young and middle-aged persons consequently to pelvic and perineal traumas or they are complications of surgical interventions. Open surgery often cause complications such as suppuration of the operative wound, emergence of urinary fistulas, enuresis, recurrence of the structure or obliteration. Negative results of these operations are also shortening of the penis, erectile dysfunction causing serious social dysadaptation. Current advances in endoscopic instruments and imaging provided design of endoscopic techniques able to represent an effective alternative to open surgical interventions in urethral strictures, obliteration of the urethra and bladder cervix. The experience gained in the Clinic of the Research Institute of Urology in the practice of updated and novel endoscopic interventions aimed at recovery of urethral patency (strictures longer than 1 cm--inner optic urethrotomy, obliteration of the urethra and bladder cervix--endoscopic recanalization) has proved the advantages of the endoscopic techniques over open operative interventions. They are most cost-effective, result in better outcomes, bring about no erectile dysfunction.
